REST APIs

Notes about our REST APIs:
Version 1.0 of ThePort's RESTful APIs will contain basic GET and POST verbs. (note: the DELETE verb will not be supported until a later release). Note that ThePort has no intention of supporting the PUT HTTP verb. We will be using POST for all insert / update transactions.

Additionally, the REST APIs will automatically expose ALL GET requests both as XML (natively) and as JSON. In a later release, data will be exposed as RSS and will also include a callback parameter for JSONP (JSON with Padding)

All communities support two developer keys: A read-only key which can only be used to access GET methods and a read/write key which can access both GET and POST methods *PLEASE DO NOT EXPOSE THE READ/WRITE KEY IN CLIENT-SIDE REQUESTS!!!*
